Who left The Traitors tonight: Who got murdered and banished in BBC reality TV show episode 6

After the shock banishment of barber and birdwatcher, Tyler, during last night’s episode of The Traitors, there was a downbeat mood at breakfast the following morning. Having come clean with her fellow contestants that she was in fact an Anglican Priest, Lisa came to breakfast wearing her dog collar, perhaps to dispel rumours that she might be making it up.

Having kept the fact there was an attempt to recruit her as a traitor secret yesterday, swimming teacher Anna, decided to confide in some of her fellow contestants. However, her honesty actually caused suspicion she might be lying, considering she had kept this information to herself for a full 24 hours.

Tonight’s mission began in dramatic fashion with host, Claudia Winkleman, sat on the shoulders of two large masked figures. The contestants were then clad in their own masks, theirs of the horned variety, before getting gunged in a sticky brown liquid. In the end, they added £5,000 to the prize pot, and, despite the potential for each of them to walk away with a shield, only Charlotte, Dan and Linda earned immunity from murder - even though traitor Linda doesn’t need it.

Who will be murdered in The Traitors next?

In a shock twist, the traitors were given the challenge to write four names on a painting in the bar - with the potential to be caught in the act. The chosen four - Anna, Fozia, Alexander and Leon - then had to play a deadly card game to decide who would be murdered. Entitled ‘death match’ the player left holding the ‘life card’ would be safe, eliminating a player from the game each time.

The first person safe was, in her words - “the girl who lived”, Anna. The next ‘safe’ player was Alex. Of course, we don’t get to know who won that last hand of cards until next week, however we do know it will either be Leon or Fozia who will be the next player murdered.
